One of the firs things I did in the wedding planning process was search for photographers. To me,…read morethe photography was one of the most important parts because I want to have these pictures forever and be able to relive the day. I had a very specific idea of what I was looking for - I wanted the pictures to tell a story. I found Michael's website as I was searching, and his work immediately caught my attention. I was really impressed with his style, as it was exactly what I was looking for. Michael was a joy to work with! He was always very helpful with answering all of my questions and working with us in every way possible. And he never got annoyed with my millions of emails with just ONE more question. LOL. He was on time on our wedding day, and was super flexible! I was getting ready at a salon while my husband was at a house getting ready, and he made sure to be able to be at both places to get pictures of us getting ready. We had a very large wedding party, 21 people to be exact! As well as a ton of family. He worked so well with everyone, and getting all of the pictures that were important to us. It definitely took longer than I had anticipated with so many people, but he was so patient with me asking for this picture and that picture, it all worked out! We are super happy with our decision to hire Michael. He made the whole process easy and we cannot thank him enough for that!!

During the shoot he made us feel totally comfortable and kept the experience fun and relaxed. He knew all the best spots around the location and helped us get such beautiful shots.

We definitely plan to work with him again in the future!

This was definitely the right decision for us!! Daniel knows the area very well & knew exactly where to meet for her pictures. He arrived on time, the meadow was an amazing choice! He captured the light beautifully setting behind the trees but keeping my daughter the spotlight. He was great with hand placement & we were very comfortable with him. And the pictures turned out FANTASTIC! He delivered the sneak peak just as he said he would, followed up with the edited pictures for us in a timely manner. If he were closer to us (we are in Illinois), we would use him for all of our pictures.

Courtney was an absolute gift to have on our wedding day. Wedding days are inherently hectic, but…read moreshe moved through the chaos with such grace and calm that she put everyone around her at ease, including us. Her thoughtfulness went above and beyond. She even took the time to learn the names of our close friends and family! The photos turned out beautifully. We were floored when she sent us an 80-photo preview just three days after the wedding. That kind of turnaround, on top of the quality of the images, shows how much care she puts into her work. This wasn't our first time working with Courtney either. She was also our photographer for our engagement session, and having that continuity meant she already understood us as a couple by the time the wedding arrived. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, attentive, and genuinely lovely to be around on one of the most important days of your life, Courtney is it. We can't recommend her enough!

He was easy to communicate with, flexible with short notice, and showed up right on time. Martin has a laid-back style, which worked well for the atmosphere we had. He moved around the venue without being intrusive and captured a solid variety of shots--some were great,, others more candid and casual, which actually helped show the vibe of the event. He posted the photos quickly to his website, which made it easy for us to share with our team and guests. I appreciated how simple he made the whole process--no hassle, accepted electronic payment, and delivered as promised. Martin was dependable and professional without being stiff or overproduced. I'll definitely keep him in mind for future events and would recommend him to others looking for someone reliable who knows how to blend into the scene and get the job done.

We felt at ease with them from the beginning, and it was obvious that they knew how to work with large groups (like ours) with many young children (seven little ones under age 7). While the primary goal was to obtain a full group photo and a grandparents-with-grandkids photo, Sandra and Josh also took photos of each individual family with their children plus candids of the little ones wandering freely through the meadow where the photoshoot took place. The photos we now have will forever be a reminder of a fabulous week that our family spent together in the Lake Tahoe wonderland. We are grateful to Sandra and Josh for documenting this special time for us.

We could not be more thankful that we chose Corey to photograph our special day. He is incredibly talented, and really knows how to photograph not only people, but he captures the beauty of nature, and specifically Lake Tahoe, so well.

I found Gabriel via Wedding Wire and ended up booking him for our wedding in Reno in January 2017…read more It was a destination wedding so we weren't able to meet face-to-face prior. However, after having a call with him, coordinating via email, and face timing, we were confident in having him shoot for our wedding. It was the absolute worst weather in about a decade, but nonetheless, Gabriel showed up on time with his assistant and got right to work. He took some gorgeous photos and I think it wasn't easy to work with us because our room was so messy from pre-partying the night before, the guys were all over the place and nowhere to be found at times (not their fault, our timeline wasn't accurate) and everyone was so busy working on last-minute wedding stuff. It was a very stressful day due to Atlantis hotel being SO unhelpful - but that's reserved for another review! Let's talk about Gabriel here. He had a creative eye for photos and worked quickly. We got some beautiful shots that took little to no time setting up because of his experience. The only hiccup we had wasn't Gabriel's fault. We didn't take proper photos with each table. I think that was on the DJ to announce it and he never did. Neither did our coordinators or anyone else. I wish we had done so earlier because no one was on that, which is a big part of your photos. However, Gabriel was nice enough to stay back a little bit longer after we begged him to go around and take a photo with each table and he did. We received our photos in a very timely manner. At around 2 weeks, we were able to view them online. At 3 weeks, we received a beautiful flash drive with all 1400+ photos in there. Thanks, Gabriel for working with us and being so good at what you do.

What an amazing wedding photography experience! I highly recommend Gabriel Radu for your event…read morephotography needs! First off, I planned my entire wedding out of state. The most important vendor to me was the photographer and trust me, I did my research, pages of it. I looked on every wedding website, through pages of reviews and stumbled upon Gabriel Photography. He didn't have many testimonials but his website displayed some beautiful shots that aligned with the talent I was looking for - picturesque, romantic and dreamy. I was a little suspicious because he was so affordable (wedding photography typically runs upwards of $2k and Gabriel was well below the average cost). I called him up and we hit it off immediately. He was happy to listen to everything I was looking for and interested in knowing more about my fiance and myself to get a better overview of what we desired. Upon request, he allowed me to view additional galleries of weddings he had shot recently. He was also more than happy to meet me (45 minute drive for him) when I booked a trip back to California to tie up the loose ends before the wedding just so we could meet in person and talk! Gabriel is so friendly and willing to make any and all of your photography needs a reality! He really has that eye for beautiful shots that cannot be taught. My wedding ceremony was unplugged (only Gabriel was allowed to take pictures) and he did a fantastic job capturing every single moment! Not only that, he goes above and beyond what is contracted! Not only did he take the EXTRA time (we were contracted for 6 hours) to make sure every shot was captured, he even helped taxi some of the bridesmaids to the venue last minute! The cost of his service includes ALL of the high resolution edited images he takes and an online gallery. We ended up with over 1400 amazing pictures!! The online gallery of images was ready almost immediately after our wedding and the flash drive was in our hands less than a month after! The photos speak for themselves but I am a true advocate for Gabriel Photography!
